Can you explain, or provide a link?

I’m a networking novice, but in my .ovpn profiles I provide, the IP is hard-coded.

Instead of an IP, you can use a domain. Then you can use Dynamic DNS to keep that domain pointed at your current IP (essentially, you run a small program on the same computer as the VPN server, that updates the DNS provider every time the IP changes).
